I found the astrological analysis absolutely fascinating, if not eerie in its truthful, predictive accuracy !
Particularly since Mohatarma (Honourable) Benazir Bhutto was in a bullet-proof and bomb-proof car ( as shown on PTV - Global ). Yet she made the fatal error of standing up through the roof-hatch of the car, thereby compromising her safety by exposing her head/shoulders-torso to the suicide bomber, who took immediate advantage ... (as seen on TV)
She is said to have believed that a true follower of Islam would never kill a woman ...
And so she was assasinated despite the heavy and intensive security - absolutely in keeping with the astrological prediction.
The position of Rahu, Ketu, etc in the other example (California Wild Fires Astrological Analysis) you gave makes sense to me and is therefore acceptably plausible !
I think, Astrology is believable when its exponent has true knowledge and understanding of the subject. Quacks and charlatans tend to denigrate it in the eyes of the vast/expansive majority of common people ?
You are right, it too is a Science, that needs proper learning and comprehension.
Wishing you and all the rest of the like-minded Sangat a very Happy and Prosperous New Year 2008 !
